If that happens the answer is simple, as Doctorow has suggested; Canada should legalize digital jailbreaking.
Teslas. John Deere tractors. HP printers. Etc.
A win for everyone except them.

Calling attention to Trudeau right now offers a style contrast that does not work in Pollievre's favor. And it reminds people that Pierre's been following a very MAGA-ish tactical playbook for a very long time.

I think right now I'm hoping for a minority parliament.

His response to tariffs and threat of annexation:
1. "Knock it off" (really?)
2. But enough about the existential threat, concentrate on Justin

Problem is, IMO in his swan song Trudeau is handling the situation exactly as most Canadians would want our PM to do.

4/5 #canpoli

With his two main attack targets -- Justin and the carbon tax -- no longer in play, Pollievre's gone back to the old Tory tactic of obsession with Liberal scandals. But so long as Pierre refuses to get security clearance he's in no position to harp on personal flaws in opponents.

Legacy media shitting on upstart rivals.
Who could have predicted?

Slowly finding people to follow. Glad you're here.

X has become a righty echo chamber.
Bluesky is well on its way to becoming a reactive lefty echo chamber.
The divide is widening.

I've been watching too much Ukraine coverage. I thought they were anti-missile panels.

Thanks, Fixed.

Much more nanny-state than Bluesky, Mastodon and others. Will nag you mid-post if you're using ... assertive ... language.

I started on a similar chart from a different perspective. Admittedly needs a lot more work but some info may be handy here.
